![Today is 500 day mark since I started taking health, fitness and nutrition seriously.
There are hardly any days where I missed gym or missed being active. After repeated failed fitness attempts of yesteryears, this time I finally struck consistency. Extremely glad and fingers crossed to extend the 500 days to forever.

- Easy to access gym in my apartment community
- Working out with like-minded and extremely motivated folks (@arjunkholia, @i.m.vivek)
- Collecting data, data and more data. Setting goals for every 3 months and based on data analysis, taking actions for next 3.
- No rigid food restrictions and cooking goddamn tasty food. Prioritizing social life over abs.

But I gotta eat tons of food as well and who doesn't like eating! 🤤](https://darpan.blog/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png)
